You blocks, you stones, you worse than senseless things!
Thou whoreson, senseless villain!
He is deformed, crooked, old and sere, Ill-faced, worse bodied, shapeless everywhere; Vicious, ungentle, foolish, blunt, unkind; Stigmatical in making, worse in mind.
You are not worth another word, else I'd call you knave.
Go hang yourself, you naughty mocking uncle!
A fusty nut with no kernel.
Thou sodden-witted lord! thou hast no more brain than I have in mine elbows.
Why, this hath not a finger's dignity.
Why, thou deboshed fish thou...Wilt thou tell a monstrous lie, being but half a fish and half a monster?
I shall laugh myself to death at this puppy-headed monster!
You peasant swain! You whoreson malt-horse drudge!
A knot you are of damned bloodsuckers.
Thou unfit for any place but hell.
Thou lump of foul deformity!
